Greetings,

For the Remove PyXML Feature,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/RemovePyXML  all packages in Fedora
that depend on PyXML need to be ported to another python XML library or
removed from Fedora.  All but three of the packages have been ported
upstream or in Fedora at this point.  The remaining packages are:

* grc -- GNU Radio Companion: graphical frontend to gnuradio.  But seems to
        have been replaced by gnuradio-companion in the main gnuradio
        package.  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652370
* libopensync-plugin-google-calendar -- Google Calendar plugin for
        libopensync.  It looks like there's a newer version of this
        (released in 2008) that replaces all of the python code with C.
        However, it needs a newer libopensync (also from 2008) as well.
        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=844545
* comoonics-base-py, comoonics-cdsl-py, comoonics-cluster-py -- Not sure
        quite what these are.  In some way they help implement
        opensharedroot, a diskless shared root cluster.  Note that
        osr-dracut-module depends on this and would need to be retired if
        this one is.
        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=844547

In the Feature page I specified that I would be retiring these packages from
rawhide if I didn't hear back from the maintainers in responce to my
requests on bugzilla.  I haven't heard back.  I'm sending out this email on
the chance that someone else cares about these packages (or the maintainer
isn't seeing bugzilla email) and would like to work on porting them.  If
I don't hear from anyone I plan to retire them from rawhide Tuesday,
February 5th (1 week from now).

Thanks, Toshio
